| 0:00.0 | Let's rank some mid-round running backs on fantasy football today in five. |
| 0:07.2 | Hello folks. |
| 0:08.4 | I'm Adam with Dave. |
| 0:10.3 | We're talking about, yeah, 18 through 27 in the consensus rankings in PPR. |
| 0:15.9 | How do you rank those running backs, Dave? |
| 0:18.7 | I've got David Montgomery at the top of the heap. |
| 0:21.2 | I feel like he's the safest, certainly has the highest touchdown potential, just based on that role in Detroit. Follow that was Zemir White. I know it's a small sample size, but I really liked what I saw from him and the Raiders' offense in general. James Conner's next. A lot of that has to do with his track record, but I also think Arizona's offense is going to be pretty good. |
| 0:39.1 | And I don't think James counter is going to give up that role quite easily to trade Benson. Zach Moss behind him, love the landing spot. Jonathan Brooks is fifth, Naji Harris, 6, Tony Pollard 7th, Aaron Jones, 8th, Ramandre Stevenson 9th, and bringing up the rear D'Andre Swift in Chicago. |
| 0:56.0 | Yeah. |
| 0:56.3 | Remandre 9th is really, is really late, I would say. |
| 1:00.4 | I have some scenarios for you that I want to see how they would change your rankings. |
| 1:04.4 | But talk to me about why you have Ramandre Stevenson toward the bottom of that group. |
| 1:08.4 | I don't see him as a particularly explosive running back, and I still think he's going to share |
| 1:12.9 | work even though Zeke is gone. |
| 1:14.5 | Antonio Gibson's there. |
| 1:15.6 | It's also a new coaching staff. |
| 1:17.2 | And the framework for this offense, yes, it's created some really good running backs. |
| 1:21.6 | We talked about it on the main show, James Connor in Arizona last year, Nick Chubb and |
| 1:26.6 | Cleveland, although those two running backs just are definitely not the same. |
| 1:30.1 | I don't think that this is a spot that's conducive to a running back, putting up huge fantasy points. |
| 1:35.9 | I don't think that the Patriots are going to score a lot of points. |
| 1:39.0 | I don't think the line is that good. |
